MR. HORNER'S LETTER.
Wc cannot endorse Mr. Horner's
opinion that an accession of from
one to two thousand Chinese during
the coming twelve months would ho
an insignificant addition to the al
ready overwhelming "hordes of
China" in the Kingdom. Every in
dustry and enterprise of the white
man. particularly in the city of
Honolulu, is all but crushed by the
cheap competition of the Chinaman ;
and a reinforcement of a thousand
strong may prove to be the straw
that will break the camel's back.
So far as the Bulletin is concerned,
no "Denis Kearney howl against the
Chinese for particular purposes'-'
has been or will be made, and that
for the best of all reasons, we know
no Denis Kearney leadership. The
principles and purposes on which
the Bulletin's "howl" if that is
the term to use has been raised,
are our own, absolutelj'. AVe know
no leader on this question except our
humble selves. Every article which
has appeared in the columns of this
paper on the Chinese was suggested
by facts aud observations that are
patent to every white inhabitant of
this city, and every sentiment utter
ed in the Bulletin has been echoed
back from ever' workshop, and from
every enterprise, .industry and insti
tution of civilization in the city.
"With respect to keeping up this
agitation for "particular purposes,"
we heartily accept the situation,
provided our purposes arc not
grossly misrepresented as they have
already been in the Advertiser. Our
specific purpose is to wake up the
English speaking portion of the
community to the rum threatening
their interests, and the Government
of the country to the ruin impend
ing over the existence of Hawaii as
a member of the community of civil
ized nations. And so effectively
have these issues been brought be
fore the citizens that the Advertiser,
which bore down upon us, some
three months ago, in solid column,
hus wheeled to the right about, and
now endorses, almost to the repeti
tion of words, every plea put for
ward in this paper for restrictive
measures.
MR. HORNER'S DEFENCE.
KniTOit Bulletin: Having hcen
some days out of town, 1113' attention
has been eallcd since my return to
the agitation over the harmless reso
lution upon the subjeot of labor
which 1 introduced nt the last
planters' meeting. The Advertiser,
for some unaccountable reason, is
rumpaiit, and tries hard to make
the resolution say what it docs not
say or mean, and its editorial of the
20th, under the heading of "The
IJuixr.TiN and the Labor Question
Again," has worked itself up about
to the point of swearing that the
planters by adopting the resolution
have taken ti stand against the Gov
ernment, white laborers, traders,
artisans, mechanics "Caucasian and
native" demanded tho free inllux
of Chinese nntil labor should be re
duced to that of Java, 10 cents per
day, &o. 11 horrible picture sure.
Now, ns it is several days since the
resolution was printed and these un
fair comments may continue nnd
reach strange eyes, and thereby
create a prejudice, against tho
Planters' Labor and Supply Co., I
ask you to reprint the resolution
with the comments following as to
its meaning:
.''Resolved, that we heartily ap
prove the net of our Government
and what they have accomplished
since our last annual meeting in
bringing and permitting laborers to
come to these Islands, nnd that wc
urge upon our Government, by this
resolution and otherwise, that they
put forth like exertions for supply
ing laborers the coining twelve
months, not only in bringing in Por
tuguese and Japanese as heretofore,
but permit tho influx of free labor
from all countries so far as it can ho
done without injury to other national
interests."
"To the pure all things are pure."
If to a fair minded man, the above
resolution means more than the
following, it means mote than was
intended by its author and, we
think, more than was intended by
the planters, viz. : The planters
thank the Government for what it
had done for them the past twelve
months by way of bringing in
laborers, and they ask the Govern
ment to continue their kind services
to tho suinc extent another twelve
months not only to bring in Portu
guese and Japanese, but also Chincso
to the same extent as last twelve
months, and for the coming ttcclvc
months only. Does that "throw
down the barriers" so as to admit
"the influx of the hordes of China?"
The past twelve months our Chinese
population is believed to have in
creased between one and two thou
sand. Would that incicasc the
coming twelve months completely
swamp these Islands? How un
likely ! Yet we asked no more, be
lieving if that number of recruits
could l)u brought in the coming
twelve mouths no material advance
cauld be made in Chinese wages.
The planters found no fault with the
Government; were willing to trust
them, and closed the resolution by
leaving the whole matter in their
hands. Is that lighting the Govern
ment? Tho Planters' Labor aud
Supply Co. by adopting the resolu
tion become responsible for it; but
what I maj have said in its support,
or what I may have said about labor
or laziness, white men or Chinamen,
sugar or sugar-boilers, cane or cur
rency, I alone am responsible, and
meant just about rchat I said. But
when I say wheat and the reporters
put it down meat, such mistakes
when printed make me say some
queer things. I have no fault to
And, however, with that. Mistakes
will occur.
Truth, fair interpretation, "knock
down" arguments, 1 much admire in
an opponent, but wrong interpreta
tions and low insinuations arc con
temptible, even if we do wish to get
up a Denis Kearney howl against tlp
Chinese for partisan purposes.

Honolulu, Oct. 21st.
LATE FOREIGN NEWS.
The following news belongs to
the dates brought by the W. H.
Dimond, and was crowded out yes
terday.
TO BOUNCE THE DOOMHIIS.
Captain Fred M. Crandall of the
Twenty-fourth Infantry has been
directed by the War Department to
carry out the instructions of the
Secretary of the Interior concerning
the removal of unauthorized per
sons on the Cherokee lands in Indian
Territory, west of the Arkansas
river. The order refers particularly
to the removal of the "boomers"
and squatters.
SHERIDAN AND HIS STAFF.
General Sheridan has decided not
to yield the point in regard to the
detailing of his staff oflicers without
a contest with the Secretary of War.
He has issued an order continuing
his present staff oflicers on duty
until October 10th, they having pre
viously been ordered to be relieved
on Uctober 1st. He is now going
to call upon the President to argue
the matter. He holds that the com
manding ofllcer of the army ought
to be allowed to pick out his own
staff oflicers. He intends, if possi
ble, to retain his present staff
ollicers permanently. It is likely,
however, that the" President will
sustain the Secretary of "War in this
matter.
THE INDIANS.
Governor Tritle of Arizona and
Governor Ross of New Mexico had
a conference at Albuquerque re
cently for the purpose of consider
ing the Indian question, which is
becoming somewhat serious in South
western New Mexico and Southeast
ern Arizona. It was determined nt
this conference to at once put the
militia of the two Territories into
the Held with instructions which will
secure entire eo-operation without
reference to Territorial boundary,
and also the occupation as nearly as
possible of every watering place in
the infested districts. It is hoped
in this manner to speedily drive out
the Indians and permanently restore
peace to those districts. Governor
Tritle went bouth to-night to meet
Hrigadier-Gciieral Crook nt Denting,
who telegraphed the Governor to
meet him there, while Governor
Ross returns to Santa Fe.
Murders by Apache bands arc re
ported in Arizona, and the Tomb
stone militia has been ordered out
for service and is preparing to take
the Held.
COItCA.
The Shanghai Mercury says:
"Some time ago wc informed our
readers that Americans were to be
appointed ns instructors and to other
high posts in (Joreu. we now hear
on good authority that Judge Denny,
lute United States Consul.General nt
this port, is to bo appointed For
eign Adviser to tho Court at Seoul
at a salary of $1,000 a month. If
such is the caso wo congratulate tho
Corean Government on obtaining
tho services of such a man as Mr.
Denny. It would have been im
possible to have found a fitter per
son to fill the post. Our Tientsin
correspondent also mentions Judge
Denny, as well as another American
gentleman, as to bo appointed to
Coroa."
The Impel ial German Consul
General and High Commissioner for
Corca, Captain Zcmbach, of the im
perial German navy, left on the 19th
of August for his new post as Consul-General
at Havana.
